These radios stink. There range is terrible you almost need see the person for them to work. I used them twice and now they sit in a box in the closet.

Yes. You should check the manual for the frequencies of those radios and then program these radios with them. These have the same frequency range.

I would stay away from them altogether. We bought a bunch, but some broke down very quickly. Some began to broadcast what people were saying without their knowledge. Not good. Contacted the seller, but could not get them to help me. We bought Baofeng but can't really say much about them yet.

I have these for use in my airsoft MILSIM group. One thing we've noticed is that they do not communicate with other brands of walkie-talkies. They have amazingly clear connection with each other, which is perfect. I believe there is a way to program them so that they do communicate with third party radios, but I haven't gotten around to figuring that out yet. Hope this helps!

These radios are primarily meant to be used on the 440 mhz amateur band,whick requires a ham radio license. Using it without a license and knowledgeof repeater frequencies could illegally trigger amatuer repeaters.They will tune somewhat above and below the 440mhz band. but you mustinquire the FCC for that legality. the main reason they may not be used without license is they put out either2 or 5 watts which is above the part 19 no license limil.Lee Miller

You might consider the Cobra CXR925's if you can find them. The best reasonably priced two way radios I've ever used. There have been some unfavorable reviews however, mine have worked well for years (if you treat them right), and if purchased through Amazon, they always stand behind what they sell. They once were available through WalMart, but not for years now.

Both of these radios have frequency ranges that are compatible, so yes. Please be aware that you must have an amateur radio license before transmitting. You don't need a license to listen.

barbara, what do you mean black box radio? this product is designed for Baofeng UV-5R. I hope this helps. If not please be specific about what radio you want this to fit on.

If you have a Ham license, you know they are line of sight. Mine will easily go 100 miles if I'm hitting someone or a repeater on a mountain top.They are 5 watts and they behave like any other 5 watt radio. I have a 50 watt transmitter I can hook it up to in the car.They are great radios.

This is a two way radio operating on CB frequency range. If you're talking about a walkie talkie it would have to be on the same frequency. Some of those newer two way hand held radios don't operate on the CB radio frequencies. It's just like you can't hear FM radio stations on a AM radio. They don't operate on the same type of frequency. You can get handheld radios at radio shack that will operate on the CB frequencies.

Yes, they should work just fine. I have used mine with several other brands of radios trouble free.

Hi I think you will be fine with these radios, it works great and easy to use. Also saves last channel. do invest in longer antennas tho. Hope this helpsCheers

There is NO such thing as "range". They go as long as that electric wire goes. For stations to communicate, they must be on the same electric wire. See Product knowledge ..2nd picture in the picture gallery for detail

Try a 27Mz rubber ducky..These Antennas are closley matched to 162Mz.... Reserched.... (wheather channels) This is why the wheather comes in with more clarity..QUOTE}There cute little radios.But not Quite up to par for mobile use 4 watts! Not)Try 60MA! Good for 100 feet!

Would work, however, a cheap pair of walkie talkies would do just fine and would have no interference and would be more secure. They can be purchased at Radio Shack.

"Technically" they will work from 1GHz to 8GHz with varying results. I don't know how well manufacturer trim/tune the antenna. If you wanna go higher in GHz 5+ use a dome/helix antenna. This should work in the lower MHz range but don't expect loads of gain or range. If you are using a dual band card with 2.4/5GHz this should be adequate. If you are gonna use the antenna for a project, (like I did) it should work fairly decent. The connectors are standard mini coax size so you can upgrade the antenna in the future.

Im no expert but we got a 2 of ExpertPower® 14.4" Dual Band Two-way Radio Antenna SMA-FemaleSold by: ExpertPowerAnd it did improve transmit range. it messed with FM (music) radio reception a little bit I'd still recommend it.
